Chapter 222 Amazing Tomb
Behind the stone gate is an extremely spacious tomb. Around the tomb, there are stone statues about three or four meters high. Each statue makes different gestures with its hands on its chest, with a solemn and solemn expression.
In addition, each of the stone-carved god statues has a thick chain made of uncertain material piercing through it, and the other end extends to the bottom of an altar in the center of the tomb.
The entire tomb is criss-crossed by those thick chains.
The altar in the center stands on a high platform of about one meter. The shape of the altar itself is ancient and grand. There is a long object with black and yellow sections placed on it.
But from a little distance, it is not very clear.
In addition, under the altar, on the ground connected by chains in the tomb, there seems to be a stone cover with dense and complicated patterns engraved on it.
I don't know how many years this tomb has existed, and there is no dust accumulation on the carved stone cover. The same goes for the altar, which is abnormally clean, not even a speck of dust.
This is simply incredible in such a long-standing ancient tomb.
"This tomb... is not simple!"
The little fat man stood at the entrance of the tomb, looked at the situation in the tomb, took a deep breath, and exclaimed with a shocked expression in his eyes.
Zhou Ting and the others also came back to their senses at this moment, looking at everything in the tomb ahead, surprised, shocked, curious... and so on.
After also taking a deep breath, Zhou Ting turned to Professor Fang behind her and asked, "Professor Fang, do you know what's going on in this tomb?"
The tomb in front of us is obviously very different from the tombs of ordinary ancient mausoleums. Or it should be said that the difference is too big. What's more, they didn't even find a burial coffin in this chamber.
Only those stone statues, the criss-crossing chains, and the altar...
Professor Fang's eyes were also full of shock at this time, hearing Zhou Ting's question. After taking a deep breath, he slowly shook his head and said, "I don't know what's going on with this tomb either. The only thing that's certain is... this mausoleum is probably not a tomb for burials. Because There is no coffin in this tomb at all. And..."
Professor Fang paused for a moment, and glanced at the altar in the center of the tomb. Continued: "And look at the situation here. Thinking about the walking corpses we encountered in the tunnel before, I am afraid that the function of this tomb may be related to some sacrifices of the ancients or other gods, ghosts and monsters..."
Professor Fang hesitated a little when he said these words.
As a person receiving higher education, and even a professor of archeology, I feel a bit scruples about speaking about these ghosts.
The little fat man suddenly said: "This place is really unusual. I don't feel very good, I'd better be careful..."
The little fat man stared closely at the altar in the tomb. There are also chains that are as thick as a human head. For the first time, his expression became extraordinarily serious. It doesn't have that obscene feeling at all.
Zhou Ting looked at the people around her, then looked up at the tomb, hesitated for a moment, and said, "You guys stay here, I'll go in and have a look by myself, if you find something wrong, you should leave immediately!"
It is unclear whether there is any danger in this tomb. Either way, it's clear to find out. Isn't the purpose of their trip to ensure the safety of this archaeological excavation and to eliminate all problems?
Right now, the main chamber of the mausoleum is in sight. Naturally, it is necessary to explore whether there is any danger, and if there is any risk factor, it is necessary to eliminate the risk factors, so as to ensure that the archaeologists can safely and smoothly excavate this tomb.
As the captain, Zhou Ting naturally did her part.
But after hearing her words, several others asked to go in together.
"Captain, let me go in with you. Even if there is any situation, we can take care of each other." It was Tang Xiao who spoke first.
Afterwards, Yu Hao, Zhao Cheng and Xu Lu also spoke one after another.
"Let's go in together. Although this place doesn't feel very good to me, it shouldn't be dangerous. Just remember, don't touch anything here."
The little fat man suddenly spoke. The tone is very cautious.
Professor Fang responded immediately, "Yes, let's go in together. In such a tomb, I really want to go in and have a closer look at the altar, as well as those statues and chains..."
As an archaeologist, seeing such an astonishing ancient tomb, it would be strange if he didn't have the urge to take a closer look.
Zhou Ting hesitated for a moment, looked at the crowd, and finally nodded lightly, "Okay. But everyone, be careful. If something goes wrong, evacuate immediately."
The tomb in front of her also gave Zhou Ting a heavy feeling, so she had to remind her repeatedly in advance.
At that moment, several people walked into the tomb cautiously. Everyone is vigilantly paying attention to everything around them. The little fat man's gaze has been paying attention to the criss-crossing chains above the tomb...
"Go over to the altar and have a look."
The little fat man was no longer as wretched as before, and stared at the stone cover under the altar that was engraved with lines and connected with all the chains, with a very solemn expression.
Zhou Ting said softly, and several people walked carefully to the altar in the center of the tomb.
"I just counted the god statues in this tomb, and there are twelve statues in total. And the position of each god statue seems to be very particular. In addition, the lines carved on that stone slab are also unusual, specific , I don’t quite understand, I need to take a few photos of these, take them back and send them to my dad. Others, I suggest that it’s best not to mess with anything in this tomb..."
The little fat man stared at the stone cover under the altar for a long time before speaking cautiously.
The others are also observing the things in the tomb, but no matter whether it is Zhou Ting or others, they actually have limited understanding of this aspect.
Even Professor Fang was completely puzzled by the lines on the stone slab under the altar.
"Then... shall we go out now?" Yu Hao raised his head and looked at Zhou Ting inquiringly.
Zhou Ting looked around the tomb with a slight frown, nodded slowly, and then said to the little fat man: "You can take some photos for your father if you want to, but you can only use our internal camera equipment. After going out, you will go with you first." Father, and we personally passed the photos to him. These photos must not be leaked..."
Zhou Ting obviously didn't trust the little fat man's character, and was afraid that he would leak out after taking a photo. At that time, it may cause some troubles.
Besides, the situation in this tomb is indeed extraordinary and must be kept strictly confidential.
The little fat man curled his lips, but his eyes glanced at Zhou Ting's huge breasts. I swallowed. Still very unscrupulous, he replied: "Sister Zhou, don't worry, I will definitely keep it secret and won't disclose the situation here to anyone!"
Zhou Ting hummed lightly, then motioned to Tang Xiao who was next to him to take out a miniature camera and handed it to the little fat man, and then said to him: "You can use this camera to take pictures."
Others don't understand those mysterious things, so they can only let the little fat man take pictures by himself.
The little fat man took over the miniature camera, which was only the size of two fingers, and started to take pictures without hesitation. It took two or three minutes to shoot. Almost every part of the tomb was photographed.
Especially those statues, the central altar and the stone slab on the ground.
"Okay. Let's go." The little fat man said after finishing shooting.
Zhou Ting nodded, stretched out her hand and asked the little fat man to return that camera.
...
Platinum Building, Xianzi Company.
The time gradually reached twelve noon, and it was already time to get off work at noon. Yin Xiu turned off the computer casually, glanced at Xiaoman and Xiaopi who were frolicking aside, and then greeted Ning Yuejing who was sitting on the sofa reading magazines all morning.
"Xiaojing, let's go. Go have dinner with Master."
Hearing this, Ning Yuejing quickly raised her head to look at Yin Xiu. He got up and replied, "Good Master."
He closed the magazine casually, and looked at Xia Fei next to her, who had been flipping the pages of the book quickly, rattling, and having fun all morning, so he said to Ling, "Little Jelly , stop playing, come to my pocket..."
Ling looked up at Ning Yuejing, hesitated a little, and finally flew to Ning Yuejing to hide in Ning Yuejing's pocket.
Ning Yuejing put the book that Ling had been playing with all along, along with her own magazine, back on the bookcase.
"Xiaojing, isn't it boring to let you sit here all morning?" Yin Xiu waited for Xiaoman and Xiaopi to jump to his side before speaking to Ning Yuejing.
Ning Yuejing shook her head, "No, Master, Xiao Jing feels very good with Master."
She wasn't pretending, but she really felt so. Originally, she had a quiet personality, and being with Yin Xiu gave her a sense of security at all times. She didn't have to worry about anything, and she didn't have to think about anything. Master was there for everything.
This feeling made her feel very comfortable. And sitting in the office just now, occasionally looking up to see Master at work, Ning Yuejing also felt very warm.
She likes this feeling.
Although it is quiet, it is good to have Master by my side.
Not as lonely as when I was alone.
Yin Xiu didn't say anything, and walked out of the office with Ning Yuejing. It's just time to get off work, and the employees outside are getting off work one after another and preparing to go down for lunch.
Seeing Yin Xiu coming out, they all greeted, "Boss Yin!"
"Hello, Mr. Yin!"
...
When everyone called Yin Xiu, they all looked curiously at Ning Yuejing who was following Yin Xiu. However, even though these ordinary employees were a little curious and gossip, they didn't dare to ask Yin Xiu casually.
Only a few old Xianzi employees who were familiar with Yin Xiu, such as Wang Mei and the others, didn't have so many scruples to ask.
"Boss Yin, who is this little girl? She's so beautiful!"
Wang Mei looked at Ning Yuejing, who had an extremely delicate face and facial features, and asked in amazement.
"This is Xiaojing, my apprentice."
Yin Xiu said with a smile.
Ning Yuejing looked at Yin Xiu, hesitated for a moment, and then took the initiative to call out to Wang Mei, "Hello, sister..."
For Ning Yuejing, being able to take the initiative to call Wang Mei 'sister' is already very rare. (to be continued ~^~)
